news, updates, & more!
This has been a difficult time for everyone.
It’s hard to live in today’s world without being affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in some way. Stay up-to-date on what we’re doing at the BNOC in response to COVID-19, including the closing of our clothesline, while remaining open with our food pantry.
Fighting hunger one bowl at a time…
On Sunday, November 3, 2019, the Clear Fork Valley will hold its 2nd Empty Bowls event at Clear Fork High School to combat hunger in Bellville and Butler…
We have so many wonderful volunteers at the BNOC, and this year’s Volunteer of the Year is no exception.
Established as an annual tradition in 2017, the Volunteer of the Year Award recognizes a volunteer whose unselfish and dedicated service has made a difference to our organization…
We extend our gratitude to Avita Hospital for their generous donation.
Avita Hospital donated a new A.E.D. to the BNOC this past week. And not only have they gifted a new A.E.D., they have also offered to maintain it every 6 months so that the BNOC can remain confident it has a working A.E.D. on-site. A new A.E.D. typically costs around $800, so this generous donation represents a big savings for the BNOC…
Formerly set at 10 am - 4 pm, the new Monday hours will be 10 am - 6 pm. We're hoping that keeping our doors open until 6 pm on Mondays will help clients that can't make it by 4 pm. This change will be for Mondays only. All other days / hours will remain the same.
Get ready for some fresh fruits and veggies!
The BNOC Mobile Pantry program - which involves the monthly distribution of free produce from Spring through late Fall - will be kicking off 2019's produce giveaways this April!
The BNOC is blessed to have the support of local residents.
And Jason Potes, owner of Stoodt’s Market in Bellville, is one of many residents for whom we are thankful…
The numbers are in. Clear Fork Valley residents’ generosity shines through yet again.
The Meijer Simply Give Holiday Campaign, which ran Nov. 18th, 2018, through Dec. 29th, 2018, resulted in the BNOC receiving $43,360 in food donation gift cards from Meijer…
The holiday Simply Give campaign starts today!
We're pleased to announce that Bellville Neighborhood Outreach Center has again joined forces with the Meijer Simply Give hunger relief program this holiday season. The campaign will help put food on the tables of our local families in-need.
Attendees Leave with Empty Bowls and Full Hearts
Many thanks to everyone who helped to make the first Clear Fork Valley Empty Bowls such a success. The luncheon at Clear Fork High School resulted in thousands of healthy meals that the Bellville Neighborhood Outreach Center (BNOC) can provide to neighbors throughout the Clear Fork Valley…
